Title: What's the name of mike hammer theme song jazz standard?
Post by: the_8_string_king on October 29, 2007, 07:13:28 PM

Hey gang, does anyone know the name of the jazz standard that was the theme song for the old Mike Hammer TV show with Stacy Keach?
 
I wanna learn it, and chances are good I've even got the music in one of my fake books... BUT I don't know the name of this jazz standard I've heard a million times.
 
Can anyone help me out here?  Thanks, Mark
